P: O Lord SrI rAma! rAma! What else (Emi) is greater bliss (Anandamu) than (kanna) this (inta) (intakannAnandamEmi)?

A:

This will indeed (kAni) be (uNDu) agreed (sammatiyai) (sammatiyaiyuNDu) by all (ella) venerable (santa) people (janulaku) (janulakella) (that nothing else is bliss).

O Lord SrI rAma! rAma! What else is greater bliss than this?

C1:

Dancing (ADucu) and singing (pADucu) to the accompaniment of music (nAdamuna), entreating (vEDucu) You to come (rA) before (eduTa), and

being in union (kUDi uNDuTa) (kUDiyuNDuTa) with You in the mind (manasuna) is enough (cAlu);

O Lord SrI rAma! rAma! What else is greater bliss than this?

C2:

With the (help of) (cE) songs (kIrtana) (kIrtanacE) in praise of SrI hari, being unaware (maraci) (literally forgetting) of the body (dEhA) and (Adi) (dEhAdi) senses (indriya samUhamula) (literally group of sense organs), ‘me becoming Him’ (sOhaM-ainadE) (literally becoming ‘I am verily He’) is indeed enough (cAlu);

O Lord SrI rAma! rAma! What else is greater bliss than bliss?

C3:

O Lord (aya)! At that time (vELanu) of chanting (japamula) Your names (nI) (literally You), these (I) (vELanI) Worlds (jagamulu) would become effulgent (rAjillunu) (rAjillunaya) verily as You (nIvai); O Lord whose exploits (or conduct) (caritra) have been praised (nuta) by this tyAgarAja!

O Lord SrI rAma! rAma! What else is greater bliss than this?
